The EVault Portfolio

Transcription

1 The EVault Portfolio Built from the start as a pure disk-to-disk solution, EVault is the only data protection platform that can be consumed as a cloud service, deployed as on-premise software, an on-premise appliance, or any combination thereof. Its fast, efficient and secure data transfer process automatically moves backup data offsite to our cloud or yours. The flexibility built into the platform means you can easily switch your deployment as your business grows. EVault protects the most widely used operating systems and applications. Operating systems include: Microsoft Windows, Macintosh, VMware, Linux (Red Hat and SUSE), IBM i, IBM AIX, HP-UX, and Sun Solaris. Applications include: Oracle databases and Microsoft SharePoint Server, Exchange Server, and SQL Server. What s more, because EVault can back up open files and applications, you can perform hot backups without closing your work in progress. Extending the platform is a set of cloud-connecting technologies that bridge on-premise and cloud deployments. These technologies include replication software and services such as the EVault Offsite Replication Service. Rounding out the portfolio are the advanced recovery solutions, which are designed to get your data back in any scenario. And EVault s expert services to help you with all aspects of your backup and recovery.

2 EVault Software EVault Software is a proven, reliable, disk-to-disk backup and recovery solution trusted by customers globally to protect mission-critical data and keep their businesses running. Advanced, patented technology ensures you can securely protect a growing, heterogeneous and geographically dispersed network using one simple solution. How It Works The EVault technology platform is a pure disk-to-disk architecture. EVault Software has three key modules that make it easy to deploy and manage. CentralControl: Enables you to centrally manage all backups from a web browser. Create and schedule backups, manage retention schedules, initiate restores, and more. Agents: Installed on every protected system, EVault agents execute backup and recovery processes per the schedule configured in the CentralControl. Back up one or more files or folders, or the full system. Vault: Stores, monitors and manages the backed-up data. Authenticates the agent and accepts data from it. Automatically ages data according to your retention strategy. Performs back-end deduplication to further reduce the storage footprint 2

3 Delta Backups and Other WAN Optimization Technologies After you perform your first full backup, EVault will find and transmit only data blocks that are new or changed since the last backup. To go even further, EVault also employs adaptive compression and bandwidth throttling. The result: minimal bandwidth usage, small backup windows, reduced storage footprint (50:1 storage savings over traditional file-based backup), and simple single-pass restores. Quick File Scan Patented process identifies new or changed blocks by rapidly scanning files on every protected system or server. Adaptive Compression Reduces size of transmitted data blocks by percent. EVault selects the best compression algorithm based on available CPU and network bandwidth. Dynamic Bandwidth Throttling Customers control the amount of network bandwidth available for backup jobs; especially useful for frequent backups of critical data, or in limitedbandwidth environments. Enhanced CPU Utilization Automatically splits backup jobs across multiple CPUs, freeing source-system processing power for other tasks. Self Healing Automatically recreates the delta index file if it is corrupted or missing. This way, delta block-level processing continues to function and identify only new or changed blocks. End-to-End Encryption EVault encryption protects backup data inside the firewall, as it travels over the wire, and when it s in storage. There are no back door decryption keys; only the key holder can enter the correct code. Front-End Encryption Data is encrypted using the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 128-bit or 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) prior to leaving the backup server. Over the Wire Encryption The backup and restore activity is encrypted. This over the wire encryption ensures backup data transmitted between the client and the electronic vault is secure, even over the Internet. At-Rest Encryption Data remains encrypted while in the vault. Single-Pass Restores EVault s ability to build virtual synthetic full backups dynamically ensures data is always available for instant recovery with a simple point-and-click, one-step restore process. EVault continually checks the integrity of backup data sets. End users can even restore their own data using the EVault CentralControl.

4 EVault Software Companion Services and Products EVault Software customers can access a collection of optional products and services that accelerate deployment and recovery for those systems you care most about. EVault Professional Services EVault Professional Services is your partner in discovery, deployment, validation and optimization of EVault solutions. At every point along your storage journey, our Professional Services team helps ensure you maximize the value of your solution today, tomorrow and beyond. EVault Replication Software EVault Replication technologies safeguard your backup data by replicating it to a separate location via secure, bandwidth-optimized transfer. All EVault Replication options integrate seamlessly with EVault Software, providing a cloud-connected deployment for fast, local data access and offsite DR protection. EVault Replication: One to One This is a software solution that enables you to replicate your backup data from your primary vault to an alternate vault located offsite. Identical data resides on both vaults. EVault Replication: Many to One This is a software solution that enables you to deploy multiple satellite vaults at each of your remote locations, then replicate all of that data to a base vault at your main site or DR facility. Your remote or branch offices benefit from fast backups, fast restores, and complete protection against site outages. EVault Vault Backup Agent This is a software solution that allows you to save the backup data stored in your vault directly to a disk-based storage device or second vault. You safeguard your backup data with storage redundancy and save costs by leveraging your existing infrastructure. EVault Offsite Replication Service EVault Offsite Replication is a cloud storage service that will mirror your backup data to a secure EVault data center. It seamlessly extends EVault Software deployments, creating a cloudconnected solution with fast, local data protection and offsite disaster recovery EVault System Restore EVault System Restore is a bare metal restore (BMR) solution used to quickly recover an unusable system after catastrophic failure. In just minutes, you initiate recovery of a system onto similar hardware, dissimilar hardware, or a virtual machine. EVault System Restore integrates seamlessly with EVault and can restore both system and data in a single pass. You get a unified solution that eliminates the need for multiple backups and dramatically reduces downtime. 4

5 EVault Endpoint Protection Integrated laptop backup, recovery, and data security solution controls data across mobile workforces and extends EVault data protection from your servers all the way to your desktops and laptops. Cloud connected for automatic backup to the EVault cloud, EVault Endpoint Protection makes PC backup and recovery both easy for the user and safe for the company. How It Works The solution places an agent on the laptop or desktop. Users can then configure the frequency of backups and perform their own restores without having to call the Help Desk. All data is backed up to a local cache so that operations continue regardless of whether the user is online or disconnected. When connected, backup data is automatically transferred offsite using WAN-optimized data transfer: bandwidth throttled, data compressed, encrypted, and globally deduplicated before going offsite. Global deduplication is especially important in a laptop environment as many shared files get downloaded from corporate servers before an employee travels (e.g. the Corporate Sales presentation). The data is stored in the EVault Cloud hosted on the Azure infrastructure and managed by EVault s team of data protection experts. The data centers are highly resilient SSAE-16 compliant and ISO certified. The North American data center: Chicago; EMEA data center: Dublin, Ireland. All systems are centrally managed through the web-based Administration Console. The console uses policies to establish rules around things like bandwidth throttling, security parameters and Deduplication. 5
